190525-N-CL550-0118 PHILIPPEAN SEA (May 25, 2019) — Seventy-pound shells for the 5-inch/54 caliber gun aboard the Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Curtis Wilbur (DDG 54) are stored in the loader missile drum roll during a live-fire demonstration as part of Pacific Vanguard (PACVAN). PACVAN is the first of its kind quadrilateral exercise between Australia, Japan, Republic of Korea, and U.S. Naval forces. Focused on improving the capabilities of participating countries to respond together to crisis and contingencies in the region, PACVAN prepares the participating maritime forces to operate as an integrated, capable, and potent allied force ready to respond to a complex maritime environment in the Indo-Pacific region.
